Anyone fished from their SUP? Was thinking of trolling behind the board. Any tips about lures, lines or otherwise that could help me land some dinner?
You should check out the Starboard Fisherman board. It has mounts for rods and is apparently a super smooth glide.
yea, I do from time to time. I find it a good platform to flick soft plastics from. Also throw a few crab pots in from time to time as well. I made a belt out of webbing with a rod holder on the back and a hook on the side. looks kinda funny when your paddling cause it looks like you have an antenna sticking out your back but its functional. and the hook on the side holds your paddle when your casting......experiment...have fun!
Yeah i've spun up a few flathead,i just get a milk crate, occy strap it round my board stick ya rod in with ya tackle gear and away ya go..
I drag a little magic mullet lure from my naish glide. great for flat head and bream.
I use a spear gun rubber that is around my ankle than trail about 20-30 metres of line out and keep all my gear in a shoulder bag.
We have had luck just jigging with silver slices to catch salmon mackeral and flathead great fun for the kids.

Maybe that could be yr summer holiday Gizzie - some trout fishing around Taupo on yr SUP. Looks like she has the fly fishing technique and setup sorted. Maybe she could give u some tips.
This photo was posted on the Breeze at least a couple of years ago, I cant remember by who, but they were from Tassie.
I reckon its a cracka.
^^^^I remember that photo too, thanks for digging it up.
I heard that the snapper season is going off in Melbourne - anyone get on to any.
I've been fishing since I was a kid and I believe I'm in the last generation that will enjoy fishing as an unregulated recreation. Come to think of it, are there any fun unregulated recreations left other than sup?
What do you other breezers think...
Woke up to a dead calm sea today and fishing looked like the best option. Here are a few shots of the session.
